Jessi Ngatikaura acknowledges her marriage faces challenges but stops short of confirming separation rumors during her recent podcast appearance. The “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star addresses speculation about her relationship with husband Jordan Ngatikaura while appearing on “The Viall Files” released May 20.
“Reality TV is hard on any relationship, whether it’s a friendship or a marriage,” Ngatikaura explains. “We’re working through things, and we’re trying our best, but things are a little tricky right now.” This statement makes her lose acceptance of the allegation of the affair.
Her comments come amid swirling allegations of an affair with “Vanderpump Villa” cast member Marciano Brunette. In the recently premiered second season of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” Brunette claims to fellow cast member Layla Taylor that he and Ngatikaura were intimate. Other MomTokers allege they witnessed the pair kissing in public, though Ngatikaura denies these accusations on the show.
When podcast co-host Natalie Joy directly questions whether Ngatikaura’s husband represents a good role model for men her daughter might seek as partners, the reality star responds with a simple “No.” She elaborates that “there’s been a lot that’s happened” in their relationship, suggesting both parties need to make changes.
Ngatikaura declines to provide specific details about the alleged affair with Brunette during the podcast interview. “I can’t say much, unfortunately. I wish I could,” she says. “There is just so much more to the story.”
The MomTok influencer appears without her wedding ring during the podcast appearance, further fueling speculation about her marital status. She hints at future revelations, expressing excitement to “someday tell the full story” and “take accountability for certain things.”
Ngatikaura believes sharing her complete experience could “open up a bigger conversation that needs to happen,” suggesting her personal struggles might resonate with others facing relationship challenges.
While the question arises are Jessi and Jordan still together. The answer is unclear as Jessi is yet to admit her alleged affair but not denying it together. Also, in the middle of the allegation she also said that her relationship with her husband was not going well. She also appears in the podcast without wearing the marriage rings and also pour fuel in the speculation. So, whether Jessi and Jordan are still together is yet to unfold.
